A brief recap of Kagurabachi chapter 5

The previous chapter of Kagurabachi started with Chihiro and Shiba returning to Hinao's cafe with Char. Since the little girl was extremely hungry, Chihiro decided to buy something for her to eat and asked Hinao to take care of her in the meantime. However, Char had snuck into Chihiro's car while the latter was in the bathroom.

Apparently, she wanted to have some fresh air since she was cooped up inside a dark place for so long. On the other hand, Shiba asked Chihiro to take it easy and let him take care of the interrogation. He then took the vanquished mysterious sorcerer to an unknown area and asked questions about the mysterious Katana and his boss.

However, the "Cylinder Head" sorcerer refused to answer, mentioning how both he and Shiba would die if he did. Elsewhere, Chihiro and Char had a mini slice-of-life moment, with the latter trying different dishes to fulfill her hunger. However, the little girl refused to answer when Chihiro asked her about her past.

The dark-haired protagonist then received a phone call from Shiba, who informed him about the Cloud Gouger's whereabouts. Apparently, the Cylinder Head's boss, Genichi Sojo, owned it. Shiba also explained how it was Genichi who was after Char.

The chapter also teased Genichi's appearance, where he was seen torturing one of his men for their failure to tail the little kid. When he learned about the existence of another enchanted blade apart from the six known ones, he decided to take bold measures. The chapter finally ended with Chihiro confronting a new adversary while returning to Hinao's place.

Kagurabachi chapter 6 has become highly anticipated, given how Takeru Hokazono ended the previous week's issue in a compelling manner. The upcoming chapter will likely focus on Chihiro's battle with the grotesque-looking being that emerged from a spiral. The chapter might also give the fans a clue about Char's background.
